David, re: Intel IPO...to make you a solid millionaire
Actually, from the low of 8.5 cents seen in the first Intel quarter of 1972 the stock has appreciated about 1200 times. Therefore Paul must have invested $850.00 for each of his millions :-)
All, thought on this historic day you might like a history chart of the early intel stock prices. You will see some dramatic falls along the way. Take a look around 1985. I would like to meet the persons who hung on through that one. Paul? Is that you?
